With respect to importance of anthropometric parameter recognition in medicine, dentistry, archeology studies and industry in different races, and the other hand need of these studies in the different regions of the country, present study with aim of craniofacial parameters determination in Kashanian young people and evaluation of its relation with gender was designed.

Four hundred and twenty-five health young people (250 males and 202 females) which ranged in age from 20 to 35 years were studied. Digital sliding caliper for anthropometric parameters of face and plastic ruler for skull circumference, face breath, and distance between two mandibles did measurements of twenty skull parameters.

According to anthropometry, the skull of a male is larger and higher than that of a female. All of twenty landmarks in craniofacial region in male significantly higher than female. Sex dimorphism ratio in 20 cranial parameters showed greater values in male than female. Cephalic indexes were 78.46 in male and 77.11 in female.

Skull parameters are evidences for distinguish gender in the central region of Iran population. All of anthropometric parameters in males are larger than females. Type of head shape in this study was mesocephalic head. The results of the present study can be used as a forensic tool for identification of unknown crania.

A subset of CD4 T cells named T helper (Th)22 cells play some pathogenic roles in some autoimmune disorders such as type 1 diabetes (T1D). We aimed to study the correlation between the circulatory number of these cells and serum levels of its related cytokines with T1D as well as diabetic complications including metabolic control, atherosclerosis, and nephropathy. Fortynine patients with T1D and 43 healthy controls underwent the assessment of circulatory number of Th22 cells (by flow cytometry), serum level of Th22 related cytokines including Interleukin-22 (IL-22), Interleukin-10 (IL-10), Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β), Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) (by ELISA) and carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT) measurement (by doppler ultrasonography). In addition, fasting blood and urine samples were taken to measure levels of hemoglobin A1C, lipid profile, cell blood count (CBC), serum and urine creatinine and urine protein in all participants. Th22 frequency and serum levels of IL-22 and TNF-α in patients were significantly higher than those in controls (p
